Lyrics
The world will judge you, but God knows your heart

Black prayers from past years gon settle in
God is reading the letters that we’ve been mailing in
Melanin skin deep they like to meddle in
And put they knife to our wounds sharp on the metal end
Metaphorically speaking in meta world peacing
I met a girl who was weeping it made her pearl cheeks glisten
But no one listen her curled kinks cover her brilliant mind resilient kind adapted chameleon fine
Filling lines with lyrics still couldn’t do justice when touching her spirit
Because she functions from an unction good luck with appearance
The surface ain’t just where her worth is cuz her perseverance
Made it work when it didn’t
Walked the earth with a vengeance
Chocolate Hershey goddess with posture defying the physics
Of gravity how she still laugh when her people were pillaged
But from the steeple and the mountain top Jack
She still gon say it proudly I’m black
I’m black…

Don’t cry daughter (it’s ok to be black)
Don’t cry baby (it’s ok to be black)
Get up my son nothing can hold you back
Don’t cry children (it’s ok to be black)
Shine shine
You’re beautiful inside
Rise up rise up don’t you know you can fly

Looking at this generation feeling hopeless
Looking cross my shoulder keep my eyes open
Keep my mind focus ain’t no hocus pocus
Cuz when it’s all said and done they will all know us

Trying to bring us down keep us at our lowest
You thought you broke us, uh huh, but you woke us
Be a leader not a follower Modern day Moses
I’m the water to the seeds that becomes roses

Black and Beautiful (black)
Head to my cuticles
Darkness is what I’m moving through (black)
They want my eyes wide shut
That’s just the usual (black)
How have I not died yet
They tryna take my neck
And put that shit through a noose
Black on Black on Black
Black on Black
Black my skin is so Black
Black don’t crack
That’s why they gave us crack
Now look where we at
Once I get some reparation racks
Watch how I react
Keep that income tax
I need 40 acres and a pack

Don’t let no one put you down
Let me see your smile

Don’t cry daughter (it’s ok to be black)
Don’t cry baby (it’s ok to be black)
Get up my son nothing can hold you back
Don’t cry children (it’s ok to be black)
Shine shine
You’re beautiful inside
Rise up rise up don’t you know you can fly

Shine shine
You’re beautiful inside
Shine shine
You’re beautiful inside
Shine shine
You’re beautiful inside
Shine shine
You’re beautiful inside
